Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb lean ground turkey
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 packet taco seasoning
  • 4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Equipment

  • Large pot or Dutch oven
  • wooden spoon
  • Ladle

Method
 

  1. In a large pot or Dutch oven, cook the ground turkey over medium-high heat, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until no longer pink, about 5-7 minutes.
  2. Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the pot and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, until the onion is translucent.
  3. Sprinkle the taco seasoning over the meat and onion mixture, and stir to coat evenly.
  4. Pour in the chicken broth, black beans, diced tomatoes, and corn. Bring the soup to a simmer and let it cook for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  5. Remove the pot from the heat and stir in the Greek yogurt until well combined.
  6. Ladle the soup into bowls and top with shredded cheddar cheese.

Notes

For best results, be sure to thoroughly brown the ground turkey to develop a rich, savory base. The key to the creamy texture is the addition of Greek yogurt at the end. This dish can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 4 days or frozen for up to 3 months.
